Mooncakes

Soon it will be MidAutumn moon festival in China. We have sent a care package to our son and his foster family. I wrote a thank you note to Henry's foster parents. Each day I pray that we get to meet them. It is not usual, but my thought is since he is older it would be cool to bring him back to the people who raised him for the first several years. I am not going to take him back to the orphanage when he is older. His memories are with his foster family in a village quite away from the SWI. That is where it begins for him. Hope! That's all I have at this point. I have no control over whether or not CCCWA will allow this.... But stranger things have happened.
On another note, we should get TA anytime this week. If this happens we will leave October 9th and meet Henry the 15th. One month until we leave. I am starting to cry at the drop if a hat. I am extremely emotional and if the word ADOPTION or anything associated with it is mentioned, I tear up! I did the same thing with Leah. Once we get the gotcha! Date and consulate appointment I can put the paperwork nightmare behind me and focus on the family and upcoming changes. We are going to be gone for three whole weeks!!!
